Welcome to Nebraska Volunteers! This website was created for the Nebraska150 Celebration with the goal of increasing volunteer engagement in the state. We hope that this website will serve as a tool to connect users with volunteer opportunities in their area. Additionally, we hope that users will not just take the time to volunteer, but to also log their volunteer hours on this site.

Why Volunteer – There are a lot of reasons people volunteer. Some want to help others, to enact change in their community. Others see it as an opportunity to share skills they have or even to develop new skills. Maybe it’s a love for pets or a desire to help the sick and suffering. Whatever your reason to volunteer is, we want to empower you to make an impact.

Why Log Time – Nebraksans can be humble people, but we also consistently rank in the top 10 states for volunteering. Logging volunteer hours on this site isn’t about bragging, it’s not about proving something. It’s about coming together as a state for the common good. When you log your hours you are helping volunteer organizations better understand how Nebraskans serve others. You are also helping the state to get a better understanding of how much Nebraskans actually volunteer, helping our state compete against others in national volunteer rankings.
